Separate a full career site from a job widget. A widget can publish live roles on your website, but a real career site adds brand pages, location pages, stories, media sections, lead capture and tracking. The catch is that deeper site control usually means more setup work and less transparent pricing.
Check the domain and SSL rules before you buy. Teamtailor supports custom subdomains with automatic SSL, which is clean for brand trust. Breezy HR custom career portal domains are paid-plan-only, and Breezy-supported SSL needs a Pro-plan sales conversation. Workable’s own help docs give mixed plan guidance, so confirm eligibility and cost in writing.
Test who can edit the page. Marketing should be able to update copy, imagery, testimonials and benefits without waiting on a developer for every change. More design freedom can also create governance work, especially if several recruiters publish pages across regions.
Do the language and audience maths. Teamtailor is strongest for multilingual and audience-specific career pages, including lead and campaign pages. Breezy HR includes multi-language support on its free Bootstrap plan, but that plan is limited to one active position or pool. Workable supports multiple career-page languages where the account has language options, but each language page must be published separately.
Budget for the costs around the page. Paid promotion, SMS, AI credits, onboarding and assessments can sit outside the headline ATS price. Breezy HR has Breezy Intelligence, SMS and Onboard add-ons. Workable starts paid accounts with 3,000 AI credits, then sells credit bundles, and its Standard plan also lists paid add-ons for texting, video interviews, assessments, and performance and engagement.
